Love, Theoretically - Summary
Elsie Hannaway, a brilliant but financially struggling physicist, juggles her job as an adjunct professor with an unusual side gig as a fake girlfriend. Her carefully constructed double life threatens to unravel when she meets Jack Smith, an arrogant experimental physicist who is both her favorite client's brother and someone who interferes with her career plans. Between bitter academic rivalry and irresistible attraction, Elsie and Jack must discover if their connection can exist beyond science.
Key Themes
Academic Rivalry and Passion
Hazelwood paints a vivid picture of competition and intrigue in the scientific world. Elsie and Jack, both ambitious and talented in their respective fields, initially view each other as competitors. Their intellectual sparring and attempts to outdo each other are filled with tension and humor, while an irresistible attraction simmers beneath their rivalry.
The Challenge of Authenticity
Elsie struggles with concealing her true personality while playing various roles as a fake girlfriend. These experiences shape her self-image and make her doubt her ability to build genuine relationships.

The story demonstrates how love can emerge in unexpected places. Elsie, who approaches love theoretically, finds herself in a relationship that overturns all her carefully crafted rules and expectations.
